Since kernel 2.4.1 is out officially, I'm hoping to try building it this
weekend and try dropping it into RH 7.0J.  Around 10 years ago I built some
other Unix kernels, but this will be my first time trying it in Linux.  In
particular some RH7 document says that its version of gcc can't compile the
kernel but another compiler can, so I'll have to look for it.  This weekend
might not be long enough...

Yours sincerely,
